Hello for past month I have been a heavy smoker and two days ago I noticed I felt like I have something stuck in my throat and on the left side of my throat underneath my jaw it feels like a lymph node is swollen and as well the left side of my tonsil is really sore. I am 18 years old and I am a fairly fit and normally a very healthy individual. And the past week I have felt an increase in fatigue and a decrease in breathing nothing extreme but assuming just like how someone who smokes would feel. A couple days prior to these thing I had a headache and what felt like a fever. And just this morning I woke up and my chest had extreme pain in it especially on the left side up higher within a couple hours it now has subsided. Now although I have not had pain or bleeding from the ears as well as no bleeding in my flem when I cough it hurts to swallow but only on the left side and I am getting my wisdom teeth back in again which has been a constsnt battle of in and out for the past year on the left side my wisdom teeth have been extremely painful and it does not hurt to chew but it is painful if that makes any sense. Another thing also the swollen lymph node on the left side of my neck underneath my jaw a little bit is painful to touch very sore. I have felt the need to puke for a couple days but never gotten to the pojtn of where I need to puke like needing to go over and try.. My mothers side has a history of cancer and I m very afraid I might have throat cancer. Is it a possibility? Or could it be something else like strep throat? Please help! And fast too!
